Damon (Ian Somerhalder) and Stefan (Paul Wesley) try to figure out how to get Elena (Nina Dobrev) to flip her humanity switch or rather switch it for her and Stefan comes up with a few plans. Plan A is the prom where they will attempt to make her remember. Caroline's (Candace Accola) prepared another night of partying for everyone and simply gets no gratitude for her hard earned work. The theme this time round is 'Pictures of You,' where there are pics of the student's past and Elena really can't see the purpose behind it, more on that later. Jeremy (Steven R McQueen) appears to Bonnie (Kat Graham) and tells her to wake up, she does so and realizes the couch is on fire. She still can't control her expressionism.
Accompanying Caroline to her dress fitting, they meet Elena and Rebekah (Claire Holt). She's still hopeful for the cure and Elijah (Daniel Gillies) tells her she must convince him of how badly she must have the cure. To this end she must act human all day. Elena still being a right old 'bitch', yes I have to say it. She's horrible to them both and they were meant to be best friends. Caroline later finds Elena has stolen her red dress in which she was meant to look positively hot in and she asks Klaus (Joseph Morgan) for another one from his 'vintage' dresses, yes Klaus and dresses, wonder if he's tried any on, ha. He's still debating the cure and he thinks it's better if they give it to Silas, even if all supernatural beings return, at least they will have their brother back.
The 'pictures of you' on the TV screen, show one with Elena and Matt (Zach Roerig) one which Elena's mother took. Once again Elena goes to the dance with Stefan and Damon, who forces her to wear a corsage. Caroline wants to tear strips off her for stealing her dress but Stefan comes along and she has to feign a compliment. Rebekah wants to be prom Queen but April (Grace Phipps) refuses since she has to be voted in. Elena however is more forceful and wants April to oblige, seeing as that's what Rebekah would have eventually done, but she tells Elena she wouldn't have. Elena's taken on Rebekah's vicious streak here for her.
Rebekah asks Matt if she'd make a good human and he tells her she wouldn't since she's never done anything good in her life. Stefan dances with Elena and attempts to rekindle some sort of humanity by telling her how well they danced together and she liked it when he put his hand on her waist, as she almost appears to be giving in and recalling the memories. But obviously not, Damon just gets jealous watching the two of them and shares a flask with Caroline.
Jeremy appears to Bonnie and she dances with him, only it's Silas and not Jeremy. She wants him to leave her alone and she hates how she didn't say anything nice to him the last time she saw him. Then she realizes it's Silas and wants him out of her head. Stefan comes up to Damon and stabs him after telling him how he and Elena share a lifetime, so many memories together, whereas all he has is a one night stand as a result of a sire bond. Silas has done the same to Stefan by pretending to be Damon and luring him into the woods.
Matt and Bonnie are crowned prom king and queen and Rebekah is disappointed but Elena thinks it's a good idea to kill Bonnie that way Silas won't have his witch to get the cure and perform the spell. She also bites April and Matt pleads with Rebekah to save her life, even if she's trying to be human. She does this and Matt thanks her and apologizes for before. He promises not to tell Elijah. Klaus turns up and she realizes he's up to something. Elijah gives Rebekah the cure since she's proved herself, only it's Silas and not Rebekah who calls him only seconds too late. Oh come on how could Elijah not realize it's not Rebekah and just hand over the cure like that.
Caroline finds Tyler (Michael Trevino) waiting for her at home and Klaus can't get in cos Matt's got the deed now and Tyler had to be invited in. They dance but he leaves soon before the others arrive for the after party. Klaus catches him outside and tells him he'll give him a five second headstart. Elena goes for the kill with Bonnie but she uses her expressionism on her and Elena is attacked until Stefan stops her. About time Elena was given her own medicine. Stefan injects her and Damon and Stefan realize fear may be the key to breaking the switch. She's locked in the Salvatore dungeon. Damon will be left to see Elena through it when her memories come flooding back since Stefan aims to be long gone by then. Even if he wants to be rid of them both falling for the same girl, it's obvious from the dance that he still has feelings for her.
Bonnie finds the real Silas and he has the cure, she sees what he really looks like after Kitsia cursed him so no woman would look at him. Katherine leaves a note for Klaus telling him about a witch who can help him in exchange for his leaving Katerina alone. he must travel to New Orleans. Thus the Pilot of The Originals.
Matt survvives a prom without being attacked and Rebekah is actually nice to him, calling him "loyal, kind, honest and so beautifully human." Rebekah and this being human fad of hers, it'll probably last a night and she'd be open prey, is she that certain that she'll be left to grow old, especially if supernatural creatures are let loose. It's like a fantasy of hers that she hasn't really thought through. More like a teen angst stage she's going through rather than acting like a vampire who's been alive for thousands of years. Anyway Silas took away that problem from her and resolved it for everyone.
Elena saying if Jeremy came back he'd spend the entire time tying to get her back to the old Elena, clearly showing she has no emotions, except fear. Bonnie being able to heal herself and being more powerful than Elena was a great touch since we haven't seen Bonnie doing much and it's great Elena couldn't bite her and finish her off.
Elijah and Klaus's conversation where Klaus says he'll kill Katherine just so Elijah never knows a moments love. Now is that any way to talk to big brother. Elijah remaining cool comes back with a quick retort, "it's such a hollow, little life that you lead Niklaus."
